Self-tapping fasteners up quality, reliability
User application article Using direct screw fasteners, a car components supplier has reduced costs, raised quality and process reliability, increased OEM acceptance and has been drawn into OEM development team.
News from Arnold Umformtechnik ( 1 August 2005)
Thread-forming screws save up to 70%
A study shows how some major cost reductions can be made by using thread-forming screws that guarantee efficiency benefits while maintaining process reliability.
News from Arnold Umformtechnik (11 March 2005)
Choosing detachable and permanent fasteners
Technical background article As thermoplastics materials constantly improve in technology and cost-efficiency, the need for a low-cost and secure fastening method becomes increasingly important.
News from Arnold Umformtechnik ( 7 January 2005)
Chromiting replaces hexavalent chromium
Technical background article The EU End of Life Vehicles Directive forbids the use of hexavalent chromium, which is why a German manufacturer is supporting the 'Chromiting' technique for its fastener treatment.
News from Arnold Umformtechnik ( 6 January 2005)
Chromating use threatened by WEEE Directive
The EU Car Recycling Directive and the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive will have a drastic effect on the use of yellow and black chromating used in the fastener industry.
News from Arnold Umformtechnik (12 July 2004)
Fastener has anti-cross threading geometry
When a rotating fastener is misaligned with a tapped hole, cross threading can occur, a condition prevented by Acupoint, which locates a tapped hole and provides proper alignment.
News from Arnold Umformtechnik (24 February 2004)
Clinch bolt has dual functions
A versatile clinch bolt the shank of which has a trilobular (triangular) shape provides a releasable connection, a permanent connection or a combination of both.
News from Arnold Umformtechnik (23 February 2004)
Fastener gives anti-cross threading geometry
A spherical point at the end of a rotating fastener's shank locates the tapped hole and provides proper alignment to ensure a positive thread engagement.
News from Arnold Umformtechnik (20 February 2004)
Thread forming screws make assembly easier
Thread forming screw geometry allows the mating material to flow much easier and closer to the core of the screw, at a much reduced installation torque and giving an improved clamping force.
News from Arnold Umformtechnik (20 February 2004)
Captive fasteners can replace welding screws
Captive fasteners, which are pressed into formed sheet metal parts, provide a sheet metal component ready for installation and are a very reliable alternative to conventional welding screws.
News from Arnold Umformtechnik (20 February 2004)
Improving reliability in direct plastics screwing
The asymmetric thread profile of screw for fibre-reinforced plastics optimises the material flow of the formed thread, and achieves a completely supported thread along shank length.
News from Arnold Umformtechnik (20 February 2004)
Screws protect against oscillation and vibration
Locking screws with trilobular thread have additional small 30deg flanks rolled onto the normal thread flanks of 60deg to effect self-locking against vibration and oscillation.
